The chromosomes of offspring are not identical to those of their parents or siblings because <u>genetic information</u> is shuffled during meiosis.
Meiosis can be described as a cell division process by which gamete cells divide. The number of chromosomes is reduced to half in this cell division process.
During the process of meiosis, genetic information is shuffled between non-sister chromatids of the homologous chromosomes. This shuffling process is referred to as crossing over. A new combination of alleles is formed due to the process of crossing over.
It is due to the process of crossing over that the organisms produced are not identical to each other or the parents. Genetic diversity is important in order for populations to survive which is possible through the process of meiosis.

Mutualism is relationship that is beneficial to both organisms involved. The relationship between a plant and a bacterium called a mutualism because both of them help each other. Bacteria are involved in increasing the fertility of the soil by fixing atmospheric nitrogen and thus provide plant with nitrogen. In return, the bacteria make their homes in what usually become nitrogen "nodules" along plant roots. The plant gets food, the bacteria gets shelter, everybody wins.
The three major factors that can contribute significantly to a project success are (1) timely user involvement, (2) executive management support, and (3) a clear user requirements. There are other success criteria, but with these three elements in place, the chances of success are much greater
(Do whatever you want with this information lol, but honestly I hope this helps)
Answer:
It occurs in organisms because an organism with a beneficial trait/mutation have a higher chnace of surviving compared to organisms that do not. So the organsims that do survive pass on their genes to the next generation, and the bext generation will pass on those genes to the generation after and so on. But all the organisms that do not possess a beneficial trait/mutations will not survive, therefore they cannot reproduce and pass on those genes to their offspring. This means that most of the population will posses that trait/mutation.
Example: Spotted moths camouflage with bark so they are seen by predators and eaten. Black moths are easily seen by predators and are eaten. Spotted moths then pass on their genes to the next generation of moths.
